A Hearty Winter Roast Meal

The Sunday roast is a traditional British main meal that is typically served on Sunday (hence the name), consisting of roasted meat, roast potato, and accompaniments such as Yorkshire pudding, horseradish sauce, stuffing, vegetables and gravy.

What a perfect time of year to feature some of the local eateries that serve a Sunday (or all week) roast for a good hearty meal.

The Plough serve their roast in 2 sizes - as some people find they prefer a smaller meal followed by a small desert. Using Angus Meats for their roasts, they alternate between pork and lamb and have a gluten free gravy option available.

Price ranges from $15.50 and $21 and are all served in the warmest, friendliest environment in town!

The Bunker Cafe & Bar at Pegasus Golf & Sports Club offers a cosy atmosphere, good food and great service in a picturesque setting serving Bar Bites, blackboard specials and the ever-popular cabinet treats.

The golf club runs a Sunday roast over the cooler months, providing golfers and the public with a nice warm option for after their game. Available from midday to 5pm, these sell out quick so be sure to book and mention you would like a roast!
